Most of these documentaries are pretty interesting, some of my favorites are "Fully Automatic America", "Oxycontin Express" (WOW), "Forrest of Ecstasy" but I haven't watched one I didn't like. I also really enjoy Infomania (another Current TV show kinda like the soup

All of these documentaries are from the same director. American movie tells the story of Mark Borchardt a inspiring low budget film maker from Wisconsin. Somewhat depressing, somewhat inspiring, totally hilarious. Collapse is a conspiracy theory type movie much like Zeitgeist, take it or leave it but Mike Ruppert is interesting to say the least. Yes men is probably my favorite of the bunch and it follows the "Yes Men" in their quest to bring down the WTO. A hilarious must see.

The inspiring and tumultuous story of 85-year old surfer, health advocate and sex guru, Dr. Dorian "Doc" Paskowitz, his wife Juliette, and their nine children who were all home-schooled and raised in a small camper on the beach, where they surfed and had to adhere to the strict diet and lifestyle of animals in the wild (Taken from IMDB, I didn't feel like writing anymore)

There is more but I'm going to stop here for the sake of laziness. Please contribute any documentaries you have enjoyed watching.

Its about Henry Darger, arguably the best self-taught artist of the modern era.The content can be disturbing at times, but this man's work in whole is truly fascinating.If you didn't watch the trailer I linked, its basically this;Henry Darger was a simple reclusive man, and when he died they found an overwhelmingamount of art and writings in his apartment. We know very little about him outside of his15,000 page novel and staggering amount of drawings. If you have any interest in art,this documentary is highly recommended. Even if you don't, I imagine you'd still find itan interesting view.

One of my favorite all time documentaries is "Long Way Round" with Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman. It's actually a TV series where the two guys get on motorcycles and travel from London to New York, the long way around the world...just the 2 of them and one other guy who's the cameraman. It's a great story of stepping out into the unknown, triumph of the will, and seeing parts of the world most of never knew about. It really makes you want to grab your best friend and head out on a road trip. Incidentally, the follow up "Long Way Down" (traveling from Scotland to Cape Town, South Africa) is crap...they're always with the production crew, complete with a douchebag American that makes us all look bad, and are later joined by Ewan's wife, who serves to make seemingly happy marriages look bad.

In a totally different vein, "Trouble the Water" is one I saw in the theater, but it came out on DVD not long ago. Basically, it's the story of Katrina victims, told first hand. A couple are in New Orleans as the hurricane hits, and film their struggle, both while it's happening and trying to get on their feet again in the aftermath. Some pretty interesting things in there that I never heard about when it was going on...like prisoners in jail pretty much being abandoned and eating toothpaste and toilet paper because they didn't have anything else.

A little more main stream...but the Planet Earth series documentary on Blue-Ray is the shizzle. My son is hooked on the Disneynature movie Earth. Other documentaries that I have seen recently that I thought were interesting are NG: Human Footprint, D-Day: The Total Story and Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple.

I don't know if the qualify as documentaries, but I LOVE Penn & Teller's BULLSHIT!

They expose so many common myths that it's almost scary. Oh, and there's also naked chicks too!!
